Funny how the camera seems to always shy away from the speedometer when they start drifting...


Any idiot can can keep a car straight at 240km/hr on a desert highway with dry wide lanes, little or no traffic, no road side gulleys to fall into, and sand embankments to mitigate any off-road skid


Besides, to drift in that manner, they will have to tap the brakes and keep the tyres on a swerve..swerving means more tyre friction with the road...and friction is an enemy of acceleration.which means the swerving is already slowing down the vehicle before braking is even applied..

They will also have to take their foot off the accelerator while braking for the drift...and cars decelerate very fast when brakes are applied at such high speeds..in fact it has been proven that the higher the speed at which a vehicle is moving, the more sensitive its braking system.... . especially when the braking applied is sufficient to put the vehicle into a drift.... before that car does 3 seconds in the drift, speed will likely be far below 100km/hr


Someone should post a drift with the speedometer clearly showing above 170 at the time of drift...then I can take these towelheads seriously smiley

There were drifts of course...but definitely not at 180km/hr




Go back and watch the video again,this time pay attention to the speedometer while the driver is drifting.

Dude,

the driver was basically powersliding.

It is very difficult to drift a front heavy FWD car

HE needs to get to that speed for the effect to be more exhilarating and predictable.

Screenshot where there was a drift at 180km/hr or shut up

In fact screenshot where the speedometer was visible during the drift or Thunder will fire you

Doing 240 on a straight line doesn't equate drifting at that speed

There was no drifting at 240 stable speed, the driver got to 240km/h then power slide (drifting) the vehicle which is evident through the dashboard and windscreen showing movement of the white line lane divider and other parked cars and people by the left hand side.

Hmmmm. How did they even get a Toyota up to 240km/hr. I thought it doesn't have balance and flies off the road at speeds above 120km/hr. Was it tuned by nurburing people? I don't understand.

What I deduce was they loaded the vehicle with passengers to make it heavier, it's a sedan with low ground clearance, getting to 240 isn't an issue 270hp, 3.5L V6 with enough stretch of free road is enough to get any vehicle to its top speed.

Then liver by driver and occupants shikena grin

And loaded the trunk with cement and sand abi? It's alright. Anyway, I am still waiting for a video of a flying Toyota. Wonder why Cessna and Boeing haven't thought about that yet.

Yes you are right and they loaded the engine bay with concrete blocks.

At extreme speed any vehicle becomes lighter and prone to paper wind theory not only Toyota

From what I saw in the opening video there are two back passengers evident from their position of window shouting and one passenger in front. Their could be five passengers in all.

From the internal video we can only see, driver, the front passenger and the back camera man.

They should redo the video with 5 adults and possibly lap someone to give it extra weight. Then redo the video. I want to confirm something.
